I’m about to buy vegetables that have be cleansed by c c chemicals.
I read label and understood nothing bout the way that they’re making those Cheerios.
No one knows what’ll go until we throw a fit.
Right about now we’re all just too weak to resist.
I’mma go for a dip in a pool that’s been cleansed by c c chemicals.
Would you believe that the sign on my truck warns that it’s all a poison
Now that’s what we’re swimming in
Were you relieved when the nail in your Coke just straight up disappeared?
Well, just leave it to science to make all nails disappear.

Going Down

Staring at your feet I sense you’re waiting, who’s it gonna be
Cure your ignorance and do it quickly. This is below me.
This ship’s going down.
But I’m not going too.
The cold seemed so inviting so I’m diving right out.
And my lungs are filling up.
And my eyes are feeling bloodshot.
This ship’s going down but not with me.
Eyes averted but rolling.
You got a better idea?
My mistakes are what makes this make sense.
Moving forward on hands and knees is much faster than speaking.
Fear of failure is crippling but all we need is something, anything.

You're no good for me.
You don't deserve me.
All day long I think of you,
all day long I dream of you.
'Cuz there's nowhere to go but all alone with you.
I put you away,
stay away.
I try and I try to tell myself,
I don't want you here. I don't want you near.
How can you know what you need?
How can you know where you'll be?
Nowhere to go but all alone with you.
I try and I try to tell myself no.

Judo Chop

How do you grow, this mold?
Ten years you’ve gone untold.
The power in your hands
is faded, broken, gone.
Your excuses flowing out.
Hidden underneath your coat.
Ooze your daddy?
Make it quick cuz I ain’t got time for this.
Are you ready for a judo chop?
Yeah Yeah
Coucaracha, my friend.
I see tenants moving in.
It’s your space but I wonder
could you tell me what they pay?
Do you remember last time,
you removed all of the slime?
Get down there on hands and knees
and pray the mess away.

Sludge

His tired suit shines in the light
the glint off the teeth in his crooked smile
his bubbly delusion refuses to quit
this trite exposition aint worth the spit
The swollen head of this hapless fish
has ougrown this pond and rightly so
a moment of silence for his little dream
as his rotting carcass floating downstream
breaks apart in the current
